Villa holiday rentals in Cephalonia

We had a great stay—the house and grounds were beautiful and well maintained. Traveling by bike, we found the location perfect for exploring the area. The pool was especially nice to come back to after a day of riding. Communication with the hosts was smooth and helpful throughout. Kefalonia is a stunning island, and this place made a great base for discovering it.

Penelope's place is an absolute dream that I would recommend to pretty much anyone. As a host Penelope is super helpful and lovely to deal with, even popping down with home made cake halfway through the stay. The place is spotlessly clean and has absolutely everything you need as well as loaded with groceries / snacks and drinks to welcome you in which is a lovely touch. As a location, you can't ask for much more, stunning views, super peaceful and the multiple outside spaces are perfect for chasing the sun or shade throughout the day. We had such a great time and will be coming again as soon as we can.

We absolutely loved our stay at the villa! The place is absolutely stunning, tastefully decorated but still feels welcoming. We travelled as two couples with babies, the host arranged baby cots without any additional fee for our little ones. The villa was cleaned daily. It is truly worth the money!

Het was bij aankomst in villa Maria al als een warm bad: een trotste en zeer vriendelijke eigenaresse die ons opwachtte, de volle koelkast en extraatjes als lokale honing en wijn. En dan de mooie inrichting, ruimer als verwacht, en als kers op de taart het prachtige uitzicht vanaf het grote terras en het heerlijke zwembad. We hebben echt genoten van het huis, zijn rustige omgeving met volop privacy. Het gezellige Vathy ligt op een paar minuutjes rijden. Hartelijk dank aan Dora en haar man als perfecte hosts.

Loved the location, especially the large balcony we spent hours in the afternoon watching the water and the yachts. Also beautiful sunrises from the balcony and worth getting up in the night to marvel at the stars in the night sky. 2 minutes walk to K1 beach. Great swimming spot. 2 of the bedrooms have air con which is great for siesta time. We also booked the newly furnished apartment outside which was a great addition. It also has air con. Great restaurants in Ithaki, in Exogi 'Extra Terrestrial' this one has a killer view, in Stavros 'Delicious' real Greek food and in Vathy 'La Familia' this one has great seafood and of course the ice cream parlour in Frikes. also the local bakery in Stavros is worth visiting for bread and baklava. Would definitely recommend.

This Villa was perfect for a week on the most beautiful island. It is very central to the best beaches and restaurants. The house itself is exceptional and exceeded our expectations! Its better than the photos if you can believe that! The pool is great but the the real plus for this home is the Host he was so helpful and really make our trip so enjoyable. A million thanks to you Pantelis for making our vacation so fun and easy! We highly recommend staying here.

We had a fantastic stay. On arrival, the hosts had left a generous assortment of groceries to get us started. The villa has 2 generous sized bedrooms, a small kitchen and a gigantic outdoor living area kitted out with sun lounges, outdoor seating area and dining area. The villa has the most stunning private beach which was just a short walk away. We had our own private umbrella and lounges and honestly felt that our little bay was the nicest in the area. The hotel pool was also just a short walk from the villa and we used this a fair amount. Helen and John were attentive hosts and went out of their way to accommodate us. We could not have asked for a better holiday.

The reviews below are true—this place is better than the pictures. Nikos’s place exceeded even our already high expectations. The view is spectacular, the outdoor space and pool is delightful, and the kitchen is well stocked. It was also such a joy to eat at his family’s restaurant down the street—free breakfast every day and well priced homemade dinner!

We were a group of 6 celebrating a 60th birthday. The villa was perfect for our needs - spacious and comfortable with a lovely pool area for evening dining and daytime relaxing. The villa was clean on arrival and was cleaned really well during our stay. Fern was helpful and responsive throughout. We had a great holiday!

Sure! Here’s a more distinct version: "Our family had a fantastic time at this beautiful villa. George and Ms Eleni were incredibly kind and responsive, always available to help us out. The island is stunning, offering plenty of beaches and great places to eat. The villa’s location was super convenient—only a short drive from Argostoli and close to the airport. The villa itself was spotless, spacious, and had a welcoming atmosphere. We couldn't have asked for a better stay!"

We have recently returned form 5 relaxing days at this villa. The villa had everything we needed - and more, with many places to spread out and relax with a big group. We were warmly welcomed at the airport by Theti, who remained on hand in case there were any issues (which there weren’t 😀) and the housekeepers were very friendly and helpful. Importantly, the kitchen was very well equipped and during our stay we enjoyed meals at each of the three outside tables. Carlos couldn’t have been more helpful, both before the trip (with a detailed booklet of things locally and further afield, as well as responding quickly to queries, seeming to be happy to be of help) and during - via Theti, who was more local. We hired a car through Carlos’ friend and this was the easiest and quickest car hire arrangement we have experienced - even coming out to change the car for us after day 1 (when we realised we should have a bigger car for our group!). Thank you Carlos for a fabulous stay.

Had a lovely end of season break. The weather was beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed the tranquil setting and fabulous sunsets. Close to Magganos with a couple of restaurants and shops as well as being a short drive to some pretty beaches and Fiskardo. The house is clean, well laid out and comfortable with a lovely pool.

We had the most relaxing stay at Villa Kanali. The villa's proximity to the beach was perfect - it was a very short walk to the beach, yet also very quiet and private. Despite being so close to the sea, it was still great to have the sparkling clean pool. Anamaria and Dimitrios were very responsive and helpful. Lourdata is beautiful with the ocean infront and the mountain behind. There is a good selection of restaurants and bars. We didn't have a car, but we rented a motor boat to explore the nearby caves and beaches. We definitely recommend Kanali and hope to return.

This place is a paradise. Quiet, comfortable, clean and the views are absolutely stunning. I didn’t want to leave and ended up extending for two more days. Ideal location to explore the Island and Themis was a very attentive host. I wish there were more stars to give!

This was a beautiful and luxurious villa in a peaceful location with a breathtaking view. Everything made our vacation feel so special. I cannot fault the pool, the outdoor areas, or the villa itself- it was all excellent. The weather was up and down when we visited but due to our lovely villa, we was still able to relax and have those amazing views from inside. Michel was a friendly host and he was very easy to contact and happy to help with anything you may need. Mr Takis was very friendly and could not do enough for you. I highly recommend this villa, and we will definitely come back.

Fantastic location, easy to find, 20 minutes from the airport, 6 mins from Argostoli. Beaches all around and within walking distance. Amazing host and very welcoming. This villa is perfect for any getaway.

A beautiful villa. We stayed with another couple and had an amazing time. Not much to say other than it was exactly what we wanted; do not hesitate to book. Great restaurants a 5 minute walk away (had coffee / breakfast at Boho multiple times and Veramente for a nice dinner) and a nice bakery a 5 minute drive (Φούρνος Ο ΚΑΛΟΥΡΗΣ). Pool was cleaned everyday by the very responsive hosts.

We had a fantastic couple of weeks staying at Villa Sunflower. The villa itself was perfect for our family of four. It was well equipped and spotlessly clean. It's in a stunning location with gorgeous views over the Argostoli bay, which can be enjoyed from any of the three balconies. The pool was brilliant, our children loved playing in there at least once every day. There were inflatables, balls, games etc. that made their pool time even more fun. There's plenty of comfortable sunlounges to relax on around the pool if that's what you prefer! On arrival Vicky and Kelvin were there to meet us. They had left us water in the fridge along with various other goodies. We really couldn't ask for more from our hosts. They were happy to answer any questions or offer advice on where to park in Argostoli to where they'd recommend to eat out. Overall it was an amazing holiday and if we return to Kefalonia we will be sure to come back to Villa Sunflower.

What an amazing place, I cannot recommend it enough, all the positive reviews are fully justified! Fully equipped with everything you could possibly want or need for a relaxing stay. The outdoor space is beautiful and the inside of the property is so well thought out- stylist and minimal while remaining super practical. Location is perfect, super quiet and not overlooked, but only a 5 minute walk to the sea with many restaurants and shops etc. Kostas was super flexible with check in and check out which really helped too.

Villa was absolutely spotless with everything we needed. Kostas was friendly, helpful and laid back and made us feel very relaxed and comfortable in his beautiful Villa built by himself and his Father. He also allowed one of our party to stay past check out abd arranged a taxi as his flight left later. We would absolutely stay here again. Useful having a car but if all you want to do is relax by the pool this villa is a perfect home from home in beautiful Kefalonia!

Where do we start? We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Gerasimos and Vasiliki. You were both incredible hosts and we loved the outstanding service. The villa itself is absolutely stunning! We arrived in the last week of Oct and there no tourists around! The peace and quiet was just so perfect! We loved the weather, the pool, the views! Everything! We drove from the airport and that took about 50 mins. We loved the gate entrance and the privacy it brought with it. We enjoyed seeing the beautiful sunrise every single morning from either the balcony and by the high chairs! Absolutely stunning views. We loved the cute gift basket! Places we visited were: Poros, Skala Beach, Sami, Myrtos Beach (sunset is beautiful) and Argostoli. We highly recommend this villa to all! And we look forward to returning with our family again! Thank you so much!

Our stay at Villa Mare was truly a remarkable experience. It is a rare thing to enjoy a vacation destination that is even better than advertised. Villa Mare is not only 5-Star lodging, but the physical location sits midway up the mountain providing breathtaking vistas from every room and every outdoor patio. Additionally, Constantino was the consummate host, staying alert to any needs we had including helping us arrange a boat rental regardless of the fact that very few locations were open so early in the season. A memorable location, otherworldly views and a very stylish space to stay. We will return!

We really enjoyed our time here! The house was perfect — even more spacious than it looked in the photos, fully equipped with everything we needed, and with a warm, personal atmosphere that made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Cedric was a great host and very welcoming. The location is quiet and relaxing, with walking trails nearby and a small shop within walking distance for fresh bread in the morning. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend our holiday!

hello everyone, everything was fine except for the wifi in the house did not work at all. And the cleaning in the house was not done very well when we arrived. And the location is very good, there are many beaches, shops and restaurants nearby.
